Right beside us
I watched a video of a young blind athlete. He was an incredible runner, although due to his lack of sight, needed a guide to run alongside him. So linked together they ran the race. Attached to one another and remaining in step with the race. It was said the young man that helped him…

Cheering and uplifting
Two best friends in baseball. The one little boy cheering the loudest, as he rooted for his friend to win the award. This wasn’t a competition with him and his best pal. This was a celebration as he wanted his best friend to take home the award. His smile even bigger than his friends, who…

With God is the best
We always want more for those that we love. We want them to be filled with joy, having great health, safety, security, to be at peace. Though I have come to find that the best way we can offer them this is to make sure that they not only know about our Lord, but walk…

Growing upwards to the Lord
We stood for our family photo. We all smiled, and the picture was taken. When I went to look at it, I was further reminded of how tall my children are getting. My oldest son has long since outgrew me. My youngest son, is not far from my height. When did that happen?! It seems…

Joy in the season
The semi cool breeze blew in through our window as the birds sang their melodious songs. Outside my window the grass is growing in its bright green color, as pretty yellow dandelions scatter about. Some flowers start to appear and my flowering trees make their spring debut. My neighbor pedals past my house joyfully on…

Memories
My husband brought down the large tote from our attic for me. In it was filled with treasures. Old pictures, kid’s old school stuff, a few of my favorite porcelain dolls and even some baby clothes. It was, if I’m being honest, a hodgepodge of disorganized memories. Although many, brought me back to moments of…

His goodness
I was distracted today. Then it occurred to me once I finally slowed down, that I didn’t thank God for everything He has done for me recently. Which is quite a lot. It’s all too easy to pray hard when we want or need something, but not stop and pray, just to give Him praise.…

He goes with us
Life can be a little unexpected sometimes. Things may happen that we didn’t plan for. Maybe would not have ever expected. We can plan all we want in life, and having a good plan is a good thing. Though I have found that sometimes our plans, look different than God’s. Though despite this, we can…

Take care of our world
When my youngest son was around four or five, I took him and his big brother out to eat at a local pizza place. We enjoyed our pizza and the three of us had a great time. Though as dinner was done and we would be leaving soon, my youngest son did something I won’t…

Worldly sin
I turn it off. I tune it out. I stop reading the dysfunction that has come about. All the violence, all the shootings, all the hate. I pray that sin would dissipate. All the indifference, separation and political uproar, there is a way to make a difference and ask for more Though violence, never has…
